Short: But possible buyout?     21-Oct-09 09:55 am    
I would love to short this stock. I do not see where it can move forward, and cost cutting must be about over. However, Nick's severance package foretells a buyout. Also, since he is at retirement age and no successor is named, a typical solution is to sell to another comapny. So I see it happening. However, at this stock price they are expensive - even with cash on hand.

This qtr report will be telling, but I am watching and looking for a good short purchase. If they cannot sell the business b4 a few earnings announcements, I expect to make money.
